CAN WE REFORM THE MEDIA?
Make it were they aren't allowed to announce results like they do. We need to wait till every vote is counted even if it means waiting 11 days. We also need to have some other group count the vote.

1. I doubt it
The money pouring in from advertising things you cannot buy drives them to the right. They may pull back a bit, but it will get strong again you know when.

2. we needed to see the original exit poll
to catch the cover up this election. next election they wont make that mistake. ut if we hadnt seen those forst exit polls and hear brokaw say they needed to adjust them, our antennia would not have been up for fraud

7. I want a path to circumvent cable news and get informed via internet
sources. It just takes so much time to sift through the sites then to verify what I read. Any suggestions?
